Your new code would starve again, right?
Try it on a NUMA system with unfair memory.

We are running everything on NUMA (since all modern machines are now
NUMA).  At what scale do the issues become observable?

My 6-month-old laptop is NUMA? Comes as a surprise to me, and to the
perfectly-running NUMA=n kernel I'm running.

Or did you mean a less broad phrase than "all modern machines"?


All modern multisocket machines, unless configured in interleaved memory mode.
